Nagging Questions:The Stuff You HAVE to Know
About The Age When a Puppy
Is Ready to Come Home

At what age do you send your puppies to their new homes?

No answer under 8 weeks is acceptable or even legal in most parts of the country. Many quality breeders will wait much longer for a variety of reasons. This is typically in the best interest of the puppy and you, since a bad breeder is the one that wants to move the pups out young, it reduces their costs and effort in rearing them and improves the impulsive aspect of the purchase since the pups are so 'cute'.
